# Make sure all escape sequences are enclosed in \[..\] to prevent line wrapping issues
|
||||
|
||||
### Problematic code:
|
||||
|
||||
PS1='\e[36m\$ \e(B\e[m'
|
||||
|
||||
### Correct code:
|
||||
|
||||
PS1='\[\e[36m\]\$ \[\e(B\e[m\]'
|
||||
|
||||
### Rationale:
|
||||
|
||||
Bash is unable to determine exactly which parts of your prompt are text and which are terminal codes. You have to help it by wrapping invisible control codes in `\[..\]` (and ensuring that visible characters are not wrapped in `\[..\]`).
|
||||
|
||||
Note: ShellCheck offers this as a helpful hint and not a robust check. Don't rely on ShellCheck to verify that your prompt is correct.
|
||||
|
||||
### Contraindications
|
||||
|
||||
None.
